Definitions

  • the subject matter relates to a method for producing an electrical connection part, in which an electrical conductor is provided, the electrical conductor is electroplated and a contact area of the conductor is exposed by removing the electroplating.
  • the subject matter of the invention also relates to an electrical connection part produced according to this method.
  • connection part In order to protect electrical connection parts, in particular for motor vehicles, against environmental influences, it is known to plate an electrically conducting core of the connection part.
  • the document DE 10 2008 035 863 A1 describes, for example, a motor vehicle connection part, whose conductor core consisting of an aluminium part and a copper part is peripherally electroplated. The plating in particular covers a joint formed between the aluminium part and the copper part and in this way protects against corrosion of the electrically conducting junction between the copper and the aluminium. In this way, an electrically conducting connection between the aluminium part and the copper part can be permanently guaranteed.
  • connection elements formed from the aluminium part and the copper part is, according to the production method known from DE 10 2008 035 863 A1, masked with an adhesive tape at a distance from the joint before electroplating takes place, so that the plating can be subsequently removed locally in the masked area by pulling off the adhesive tape.
  • the aluminium part or the copper part can be exposed for connecting a conductor, while, at the same time, the joint remains protected by the plating.
  • the subject of the invention was based on the object of specifying a method for producing an electrical connection part which does not have, or at least only to a lesser degree has, the above mentioned disadvantages and which enables an electroplating provided on the connection part to be removed in a way which is particularly cost-effective and reliable.
  • An electrical connection part produced using this method should also be specified.
  • this object was achieved by a method according to the subject matter of the invention, in which the method steps specified in claim 1 are passed through.
  • the object was achieved by an electrical connection part according to claim 12 .
  • an electrical conductor is firstly provided.
  • the electrical conductor in particular forms an electrically conducting core of the connection element and can, for example, be a flat conductor which can have a conductor cross-section which in particular is essentially rectangular. In further embodiments, at least partly rounded, in particular oval or circular, conductor cross-sections can be provided.
  • the electrical conductor provided is electroplated in a subsequent method step.
  • the conductor can be coated with one or more layers.
  • layers consisting of nickel and/or tin or similar metals, or alloys which contain nickel and/or tin or similar metals can be electrochemically deposited on the electrical conductor.
  • the electrical conductor is protected against chemical and mechanical environmental influences, in particular against corrosion, by the plating.
  • connection part It was identified that the removal of an electroplating provided on the connection part can be made possible in a cost-effective and reliable way by removing the electroplating in the contact area using a beaming source. Laborious masking of the electrical conductor, which is at least partly to be stripped of its plating to expose the contact area, can thereby be dispensed with.
  • the layer to be electro-deposited is therefore applied to the whole surface of the electrical conductor facing the environment, wherein the conductor is directly and completely covered by the layer without any intermediate elements. In this way, a homogenous layer application with an essentially constant layer thickness can be guaranteed.
  • the plating can be removed in the contact area essentially free of residue by means of the beaming process.
  • the beaming process can be equally used for layer stripping and for cleaning and smoothening the surface of the contact area.
  • the plating is preferably locally removed on the connection part by means of the beaming source so that no tool, such as a milling or grinding tool, mechanically acts upon the connection part.
  • a layer can be gently removed by the beaming source, wherein the properties of the border zone in the contact area of the electrical conductor, like the material structure or the residual stresses—and hence its electrical properties too—are not negatively affected by excessive input of heat or high treatment forces.
  • the geometry of the contact area to be exposed can be essentially freely chosen, since the surface exposed by the jet/beam is essentially dependent on the jet/beam guidance or the movement of a jet/beam nozzle relative to the component to be stripped of its layer(s) and dependent on the jet/beam cross-section when the jet/beam strikes the plating to be removed.
  • the exposed surface is not predetermined by a tape geometry.
  • the exposed contact area in a plan view can have an essentially rectangular or at least in sections a curved basic shape.
  • the surface of the contact area to be exposed on a connection part can be easily increased or reduced in a production plant by adapting the process parameters of the beaming source and/or the jet/beam guidance. Changing such a production plant over from a first connection part geometry to be processed to a second connection part geometry to be processed is also simplified.
  • At least one joint formed between two conductor components of the electrical conductor is electroplated. It was identified that a joint between two conductor components, which are preferably made from different metal materials, e.g. one component consisting of an aluminium material and one component consisting of a copper material, particularly has to be protected, in order to prevent contact corrosion by ambient moisture penetrating the joint. On the other hand, for contacting with a conductor consisting of the material of the contact point it must be freed from the plating.
  • the electroplating on the electrical conductor, particularly in the contact area, is removed at a distance from the joint, so that the joint is still electroplated after the contact area has been exposed.
  • the joint is part of a connection area formed on the unplated electrical conductor between the conductor components, wherein the joint runs along the surface of the unplated electrical conductor facing the environment. Since the exposed contact area is arranged on the electrical conductor at a distance from the joint, the joint is protected against environmental influences, such as corrosion. In this way, an electrically conducting connection between the conductor components can be permanently guaranteed.
  • the beaming source is a laser beam source.
  • the electroplating can be removed in a targeted manner by means of the laser beam emitted by the beaming source.
  • the plating is vaporised by short laser pulses (e.g. at a frequency of greater than 30 kHz and in particular less than 100 kHz) of high intensity (e.g. a power output of more than 20 W and in particular less than 100 W).
  • short laser pulses e.g. at a frequency of greater than 30 kHz and in particular less than 100 kHz
  • high intensity e.g. a power output of more than 20 W and in particular less than 100 W.
  • the process variables of the beaming treatment can be adapted to the nature of the plating to be removed, such as its composition or layer thickness, in such a way that the least possible input of heat into the electrical conductor occurs.
  • the mechanical and electrical properties of the electrical conductor, particularly in its border zone facing the layer removal essentially remain unaffected by the layer removal.
  • the layer removal by means of a beaming source provides the advantage that the layer removal can take place close to a joint formed between the conductor components.
  • a contact area can be formed on the connection part at a distance of less than 2 mm, preferably less than 1 mm, more preferably less than 0.5 mm, from the joint. Therefore, more precise layer removal can be effected in close proximity to a joint formed between two conductor components when carrying out the method according to the subject matter of the invention using a beaming source, in particular a laser beam source, without exposing the joint covered by the plating to the environment.
  • the width of a conductor component can be used in an optimum way for forming the contact area.
  • the width of the contact area measured transverse to the longitudinal extension of the electrical conductor can be at least 80%, preferably at least 90%, more preferably at least 95%, of the width of the respective conductor component measured transverse to the longitudinal extension of the electrical conductor.
  • the contact surface can be exposed, for example, by means of a plasma jet source, by compressed-air beaming with a solid beaming agent, water-jet beaming, dry-ice beaming or CO 2 -snow beaming.
  • the electroplating in the contact area is removed essentially free of residue.
  • “essentially free of residue” means that in the contact area, in particular on the surface of the contact area, at least 95%, preferably at least 98%, more preferably at least 99% of the electroplating has been removed.
  • a particularly pure surface of the contact area can thereby be provided for joining a conductor or cable, for example by welding, in particular friction welding.
  • the removal can be such that the plating in the contact area no longer constitutes any closed surface or covering of the contact area.
  • the roughness of the surface of the exposed contact area is set by a surface treatment with the beaming source.
  • the surface of the exposed contact area can in particular have an arithmetic mean roughness Ra of less than 15 ⁇ m, preferably less than 10 ⁇ m, more preferably less than 5 ⁇ m, after the surface treatment.
  • the surface treatment can take place directly after the layer removal.
  • the jet/beam can act on the surface of the exposed contact area for a specified period of time of, for example, at least 2 s, preferably at least 1 s, more preferably at least 0.5 s, in order to set the required roughness.
  • the surface treatment can take place with beaming parameters which are the same for layer removal or which are specially adapted to the surface treatment.
  • beaming parameters which are the same for layer removal or which are specially adapted to the surface treatment.
  • roughness peaks in the region of the surface of the contact area can be smoothened by means of laser irradiation by local fusion and re-solidification.
  • the method according to the subject matter is characterised by the fact that when providing the electrical conductor a first conductor component and a second conductor component of the electrical conductor are firmly bonded together.
  • a firmly bonded connection can, for example, be effected by welding or cladding, in particular roll cladding.
  • the firmly bonded connection guarantees a permanent electrically conducting connection between the conductor components.
  • the first and/or the second conductor components can in particular be formed as flat conductors, as are used, for example, in automotive engineering in passenger cars and heavy-goods vehicles.
  • the conductor can be used as a cable shoe, as a power conductor, as a battery lead or suchlike in a motor vehicle.
  • the electrical conductor comprises a copper and/or an aluminium material.
  • the electrical conductor can, for example, be produced from an aluminium flat conductor, which is formed from aluminium or an aluminium alloy, and from a copper flat conductor, which is formed from copper or a copper alloy.
  • the aluminium conductor and the copper conductor can each be provided separately from one another and firmly bonded by roll cladding in a continuously running process.
  • the conductor component to be applied can be of narrower width than the conductor component which forms the base.
  • the electrical conductor produced in this way can be electroplated directly after joining the two conductor components without any further intermediate steps.
  • the layer to be electro-deposited is therefore applied to the whole surface of the electrical conductor facing the environment, wherein each of the conductor components can be directly and completely covered by the layer without any intermediate elements. In this way, a homogenous layer application with an essentially constant layer thickness can be guaranteed.
  • the electrical conductor is provided as a strip, wherein the strip is at least partly split up into strip sections, in particular is blanked, before or after plating takes place.
  • a strip can be fed as a continuous material to a continuous production process, so that provision, plating and (partial) layer removal can be efficiently carried out directly one after another in a production plant.
  • the strip is at least partly split up into strip sections before or after the plating, in order to produce separate electrical connection parts from the strip material in a simple way.
  • the electroplating can according to the subject matter take place by means of strip plating or barrel plating. The particular suitable method can be selected depending on the quantity and the requirements of the end product.
  • connection part split off in this way from a plated continuous strip is not plated in the area of its separation or cut face. This effect can be at least reduced if the strip is already partly split up before the plating takes place, in which the individual segments remain joined along a longitudinal side of the partly split-up strip via an unseparated band or bridge of the strip. In this way, the separation faces of the connection elements to be split off from the strip can also be at least partly plated.
  • barrel plating has the advantage that separate strip sections already split off from a strip can be plated, so that the surface of these strip sections or conductor segments, from which the electrical connection elements are produced in the further course of the process, is fully plated.
  • the separation faces of the strip sections resulting from the separation from the strip are also completely covered with the plating.
  • Such barrel plating is also cheaper to operate compared to the previously described strip plating.
  • the plating also serves to protect the electrical conductor against mechanical stresses, for example when transporting individual, plated strip sections to a beaming plant, in which the beaming source is arranged.
  • the electrical conductor is coated with at least one electrically insulating material after the electroplating and before the contact area is exposed.
  • the occurrence of leakage currents in the completed state of the connection part, for example in a motor vehicle, is counteracted by such an essentially non-conducting layer.
  • the electrically insulating layer can be locally removed together with the electroplating by means of the beaming source.
  • the subject matter relates to an electrical connection part, in particular produced according to a method carried out in the above described way according to the subject matter of the invention.
  • the electrical connection part can be formed from a first conductor component and a second conductor component, wherein the conductor components are firmly bonded together.
  • the first and/or the second conductor components can in particular be formed as flat conductors.
  • the electrical conductor can, for example, be formed from a conductor component consisting of an aluminium material and from a conductor component consisting of a copper material.

  • the contact area can be formed on the connection part in particular at a distance of less than 2 mm, preferably less than 1 mm, more preferably less than 0.5 mm, from the joint.
  • Particularly precise beaming processes such as the laser beam process or plasma jet process, enable layer removal to take place in close proximity to the joint without damaging the plating of the joint and exposing the joint.
  • the width of the contact area measured transverse to the longitudinal extension of the electrical conductor can in particular be at least 80%, preferably at least 90%, more preferably at least 95% of the width of the respective conductor component measured transverse to the longitudinal extension of the electrical conductor.
